Thank you I know I would have done better if I didn't mess up at the weekends but just have to learn some control, it was my plan when I restarted sw this year to weigh in after the weekend, I'm sure there method in the madness lol

Exactly what I was thinking haha!

1 & 1/2lb loss this week very surprised after the weekend. I'm considering changing my weigh day to Friday or Saturday, not sure what to do. :confused: Well done everyone on the losses this week good luck all those left to weigh today xx

I'm with you there orla, I was so good until Friday then my in laws arrived for the weekend, my will power is so bad lately I just couldn't say no to nice things ... Such an eejit kicking myself now.

what were you doing with the syns if you dont mind me asking?

STS for me.....just glad it wasnt a gain... next week Im going to amaze you all with my loses lol....go on hold me to it :D please lol :slap:

How often is the treat? If its just one day a week I can´t see how it would make a huge difference to the scales if you are 100% the other days? What about checking your portion sizes for during the week see if they could be reduced or what about exercise maybe increasing the amount you do see...

What's your treat orla?

I couldn't take the battery out of my scales that would be like cutting my arms off! It's a love hate relationship I have with them I love them when they go down and hate them when they go up... Lol I remember one day I weighed myself and had lost 2lbs (that day) I actually said f you to the...

I'm dreading tomorrow lol done success express yesterday and today so hopefully I stayed the same I'll cry if I gain but it will be deserved. Good luck ladies.... The clock is ticking....(maybe I'll take the battery out)

Lol peggydee I'm glad I'm not alone then. I'm back on track today doing success express for a while see how I find it and I'm just about to go for a run, I find when I don't exercise I feel worse so hopefully It won't happen again. Sometimes I think we need a blow out get it out of the system...

never heard of them sorry

I can't stop eating and rubbish too.. I feel enormous.. I've only gone for a run twice this week. Tuesday is not going to be good. I weigh myself most days and I haven't got on the scales since weigh in this week I'm too scared. I know myself it's not good but can't help myself, lost control...

Thanks Orla :) Good luck for your weigh in xx

Half a pound loss for me. Well done everyone on the losses

Lovemycat download any of the C25K apps on your phone and try that. That's how I started at the beginning of March I was always a walker never a runner but now I'm running 5k 4-5 days a week and love it. I usually do around 1 km warm up and a 1km cool down then run for 5k, the buzz you get after...

I think I sts was celebrating my husbands birthday on Wednesday but we started on Tuesday and finished Sunday oops, I've been running during the week so it might help with not gaining. Fingers crossed.

Sts this week so obviously not going to update anything lol

Sts not too worried I know why. Well done everyone on the losses this week great stuff.

Had a great week until last night pizza, beer, chocolate disgusted with myself, going for a long run tomorrow can only hope it helps, was so good all week too, why I didn't say no has me baffled. Only myself to blame if I gain. Good luck all for Tuesday

I joined online last year but to be honest the only motivation I had from online sw was a weekly email to tell me to weigh in. I got all the information I needed syns list super free foods and the healthy extras I've saved them to my computer but also printed them out for handiness sake. I...

1lb loss for me. Happy with that as I've been away for a week and not in control of my meals but kept up running while I was away I'm sure that was my saviour. Well done everyone on the losses :thumbup:

So I had my first drink last night since March 4th a beer and a small in fact tiny measure of gin and lemon and I've had a hangover all day...Not sure if it was worth the hangover :beer:

Fingers crossed for tomorrow let's hope it's not too bad lol :thumbup:

I am dreading weigh in on Tuesday...Been away all week didnt over indulge but didn´t have control of my meals (staying with inlaws) Hopefully the running will have done me some favours or least helped me sts :fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed: How does everyone else feel ?

Sts for me expected it as usual with totm fingers crossed for next week. Well done everyone on their loses :)

Cool thanks I might try stick it out until Sunday if that's the official ending ;)

Try it but make sure to let us know how it goes :p

All of you that have kept at the challenge is it until Easter Sunday as my husband is telling me easter officially started yesterday :confused:

Well not sure about tomorrow weigh in, According to my evil scales I sts not to worried if I did with totm and all, I'll just keep going and hope next week is better or who knows my scales might be feeling in a better mood and give me a loss in the morning :rolleyes:

I wish I had seen these before I bought new scales 2 weeks ago these are pretty cool!

Thanks peggydee thats exactly what I did my husband had also suggested a walk, felt great after forgot about work and giving up on my challenge :o

Grr Just had the worst day ever in work ! So stressed easily tempted to break my Lent challenge :cry:

Still going here no booze... Roll on easter if I lose another 5lbs by then I'll treat myself to something.. Not sure what though.

Just curious as to what everyone eats before weigh day? Are you extra good and don't eat past a certain time? What about water intake? Personally I try to eat less in the evening usually only having super free foods and try to drink less water. I'll try anything. Any tips or suggestions...

Thanks Samantha, I had a big bag so wasn't 100% sure of the weight, ended up having 6 sweets and put them at 1syn each to be on the safe side lol

Hi all, Just wondering does anyone know the syn value of peanut m&ms?

Great start to the Challenge for me ....STS this week :whip: hope to see better results next week....I have convinced myself its an April fools joke and if I weigh myself later it will magically change to a loss lol Ally_88 1.5lbs lost 9lbs remaining Barmel 0lbs lost 10lbs remaining...

STS aww well.... success express I think for this week...:slap:

Still going here, is it just me or is Easter taking forever to get here? It's not really bothering me but some evening's I really fancy a cold beer, don't know why I don't really like beer lol

Dont give up marymary you have done great so far :)

Good luck :) I feel the same, wasn't really really bad, but wasn't at home all weekend, only time will tell :):fingerscrossed:

Relax......(easier said than done) lol

That´s exactly it Orla, I like to be 100% in control. I am not optimistic for tomorrow , had a sneaky weigh in and gained half a pound. If its the case so be it, I will do a week of Success express if I can find the info on it from here (I do SW from home) Good luck for the weigh in and hope...

Such an inspiration Laurenypop, I hope by this time next year I'll be doing as well as you. I was talking to my husband about getting the fitbit he's thinks something with a heart rate monitor that I could link to my running apps would be better (he must think I am on the way out) does the...

I would be humming "eye of the tiger" all the way lol

Gosh I hate hills, Its the same where I live, every where I go I have to go up a hill at some stage, I cant avoid them unless I go around in a circle lol

The weight loss is a huge motivator. I dont get a lot of time for myself so any exercise I do get has to be quick and effective. Do you think you will be ready for your 5k in May?

Woow thats fantastic! I hope I can be as successful as you. I walk and run because I´m seriously unfit lol. I´ve considered getting a fitbit would you recommend them?

Thanks Molly :D you too , I see you have lost 6.5lbs :D good on you :D

Thanks Orla, Ive seen the link not really sure which one I would put up, I do SW from home used to do it online but only ever got one award last year and cant even remember which one it was. Is there any where I can find out what each one is? Thanks :) Since I posted this, I think I´ve found it

I also have a wedding its in June, that´s the goal date I´ve set myself for my 5k also. I have to read something in front of everyone and I´m dreading it so it was another reason to lose weight and try feel good about myself.

Thanks Clareel glad I did it at the time I wanted to just go home and sulk lol. I have set myself my own little goal running 5k by June, don´t mind the time, once I can master that then I´ll work on my times lol :)

Still off the booze here.... Kind of feel the same as you catkin not really thinking of booze, I have wanted a gin and lemon over the weekend but by the time I got to sit down and relax I wasn't bothered. How many more days until easter.... Not that I'm counting lol

Did 5.84k yesterday and 5.56k today run and walking intervals. I've gone back to week 4 of the C25K because I just don't feel ready for week 5. I can't believe I even went today gale force winds and lashed rain the last 10 minutes I was out, was like a drowned rat coming home lol. Why or how...

Nervous about tomorrow's weigh day, I've been so good all week no slip ups so fingers crossed x May the scales be with you :eek:

hi liquoricet, nope not at all, will have to try harder this week to resist. Thanks, I count the days down until weigh day :ashamed0005::ashamed0005:

I´ve just been reading this thread, I´m glad it´s not just me, I can´t help myself I weigh myself almost every morning then again around 11am. I go up and down every day I dont know why I keep doing it but I can´t help myself lol , Weigh day tomorrow hopefully the hard work this week has paid off.

Did you cope Ok last night? When I am making dinner I usually double it and freeze half it's saved my bacon so many times lol

Are you in a restaurant? Weekend's are my weakness, that's why I chose Tuesday as weigh day lol Sent from my XT1032 using MiniMins.com mobile app

Mine too! Sent from my XT1032 using MiniMins.com mobile app

Still off the booze here.... Weekend are the test... Really fancy a gin and lemon... I must resist!

Forgot to post in this thread. Did 3 and a bit (can't remember the exact amount) miles Wednesday and today, hope to get out tomorrow and Sunday for the same if not more. Such a great feeling when you are finished and jumping in the shower after... It's like mission accomplished lol

Thanks Kentcat :) I´ve started using the C25K app on my phone it only needs you to do 3 days a week but i usually go for 4 max because of work and baby etc. I find the app good, starts off with walking 90 seconds then jogging 90 seconds then increases weekly, I started week 4 Sunday but I am...

Is lent really that long!? 46 day's no booze! What was I thinking? Lol

Well done lisa... Can I ask you something off topic... how do you get the signature of your weight loss under your messages?

Thanks Lisa :) I should...its tom he makes me nutty lol Well done all the losers this week :D

I weighed myself again I was so annoyed only losing 1lb I just had to , so I weighed myself after I had a shower.... either I was extremely dirty before or I need a new scales.....according to my scales I had lost 2 1/2 lbs! So I´m going to order a new one later today lol :confused:

1lb off not impressed... Blaming TOM.... Evil!

I'm not sure about tomorrow I think I sts well according to my sneaky pre weigh in this morning (I can't help myself) if I sts I'll be gutted I had a really great week sw wise and exercising, the only thing I can put it down to is not having my hexa most of the week?

Nah peggydee rich tea in my opinion don't even come close to chocolate or sweets so well done :-) easter will be here before we know it.

Hi all I was wondering if I could join this thread? I'm also a Tuesday weigher this is my second week. Lost 4.5lbs on my first week hopefully will lose again this week. Previously I was a Friday weigher but always sabotaged my hard work and effort at the weekend after a loss so since rejoining...

Still going here although with paddy's weekend this weekend I might end up failing lol. How is everyone else doing?

Thanks isha ;-) To be honest I didn't read about Green or red days I read about extra easy when I joined online last year and it just suited and still does (when I am behaving myself lol) I printed all the sheets from the Web page and always have them to hand to double check I'm always...

Hi isha I have some sheets with all the info on super free etc it's on my work computer if I can upload documents to this I will do when I am working tomorrow. This forum is really good for support or just a browse for ideas and inspiration, I don't post much but like to read lol I'm back doing...

Thanks fillymum I found them in Dia can have 35g as a healthy extra b, hopefully fills me up more than cereal or toast.

Does anyone know what porridge I could use as a healthy extra b. I don't have any Iceland near so would probably have to be something from mercadona or a Spanish supermarket. Thanks

I have decided to give up Alcohol! The only other time I have managed this was when I was pregnant 2 years ago! Having a 2 year old its the only thing that keeps me sane when he goes to bed lol!

I´m back again! Seriously fell off the wagon the last few months, so much so my fat clothes are even too tight! 3.5 kg gain! I was actually considering taking out some of my maternity jeans so I could be nice and snug haha but I decided against it as I´m sure I´d just eat my way until they don´t...

Its so easily done too! I was doing great until last night, hubby won a ham and would be rude not to try it and of course wash it down with wine and fresh bread....lol Got my weigh day tomorrow too, not very optimistic. I seem to go off plan too from Fridays I think its because I weigh myself...

How are you doing now Caroline and Pommette? Managing to stick to it? I do really well all week then I have one bad day and I lose it completely. Im up and down like a yo yo every week, getting fed up with it now, just need to stick to it.

I bet its hard baby_angel, I´d just get it all out of my system for a first week eat what I was craving or missing then do my best to get back on it or I´d only be fighting a losing battle if not. I´m still not back on it 100% I´m trying but not as much as I could. I´ve started keeping my...

I use the same as Pommette or Bimbos Sihuetta (not sure how its spelt). I just can´t get back on the wagon lol This weekend has been a disaster I need a kick up the bum. Well I suppose tomorrow is another day..must try harder! :copon:

Have a lovely time in Bulgaria, the only tip I can give is plan your meals and have plenty fruit or other free foods to snack on. I´ve just made a quiche that I can snack on during the day, so quick and easy. That´s where I go wrong all the time so I end up eating something that's quick and next...

thanks , hope so it could substitute my take away longings lol

Thanks for the replies, I was just going to make the Chip shop one, shame it can´t be frozen. I´ve never tried it I´m hoping it hits the spot.

Hi , I was wondering if anyone has made the SW curry sauce and if its ok to Freeze it?

Thanks a million. That´s handy for the 20 calorie = 1 syn. Ive been using the online calculator its a pain though cos don´t always have my laptop on. Didn´t manage to get to the supermarket but will try again tonight or things will go Pete Tong if I don´t lol. Must put those lovely yoghurt´s on...

Its so easily done! I just need to get my mouth stapled I think, I love food so much. But this time I´m going to do it. I´ve planned my meals for the week so hopefully should stick to them. Pommette, do you know how many syns are those little cheese triangles in Mercadona? there own brand...

Thanks :) Here it goes, I woke up this morning absolutely starving! Typical my first day. How is everyone else doing? I´m finding the only way I stick to it is meal plan, I have to get that sorted today, does anyone else do this?

Hi BabyAngel, Im also in Madrid doing slimming world online. Fell off the wagon for the entire month of April and gained 2 kilos ! Gutted but anyway be back on it Monday once hubbies birthday celebrations are out of the way. I really could do with support too. If i can think of any tips etc...

thanks for your help and all the info :D I might start combining my list at home so I have a quick reference.

Thanks for the reply about the yoghurt´s Ill pick up a few of them. Ive found some other low fat or light cheeses in mercadona and Dia have one called Milner it actually has flavour of cheese not like the others. I´ll work out the syns and use them instead. :)

I am also in Madrid doing SW online, Have any of you found any low fat cheddar and are the Bifidus yoghurt's free on extra easy? Thanks

Hi everyone, I started slimming world Extra Easy 3 weeks ago and I´m really enjoying it. I´m doing it online as there is no class near me..that I know of. Anyway thanks for posting the foods and syn value, I´ve been using the online syn calculator to work out most of mine. Such a shame wine...
